Compact 1U rack server for balanced workloads

The HP ProLiant DL160 Gen9 fits a single Intel Xeon E5-2603 v3 six-core processor running at 1.6 GHz with 16 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. It targets organisations that need a dense, general-purpose platform for cloud or virtualisation tasks without occupying more than one rack unit. The chassis supports a second processor and up to 16 DIMM slots for future expansion.

Redundant power and eight hot-swap SAS bays

Dual hot-swap 550 W power supplies provide resilience against a single unit failure. The Smart HBA H240 controller manages the two installed 600 GB 15 K 2.5-inch SAS drives in RAID 0, 1 or 5 and connects to the remaining six front bays for additional SAS or SATA devices. Trays are included with drives, simplifying day-to-day drive swaps.

Memory ceiling and storage interface limits

The installed processor caps memory speed at 2400 MT/s and the current configuration reaches the 16 GB maximum for this CPU, so larger memory footprints require a processor upgrade. The H240 controller operates at 12 Gb/s SAS and 6 Gb/s SATA, which sets the throughput ceiling for any drives added to the eight-bay backplane.

Questions about this item

What RAID levels does the Smart HBA H240 controller support for the 600 GB SAS drives?

The Smart HBA H240 controller supports RAID 0, RAID 1 and RAID 5 on the installed 600 GB 15K 6 Gbps 2.5" SAS drives.

How many 2.5" drive bays are available in the 1U chassis and are trays included?

The 1U chassis provides eight SFF 2.5" bays; trays are included with the two installed 600 GB SAS drives.

How is the second processor added and which slot must be populated first?

Install the additional Xeon E5-2603 v3 in the second CPU socket after the first socket is populated; each processor then enables its eight DDR4 DIMM slots.
